Dear Group:
I have added the tree for kit #17184, earliest ancestor, Rowland Carter, born 1822, Knox
Co, KY.
I have updated the tree for #17308, William Carter, born 1837 in Tennessee, died Collin
Co, TX.
Kit #02989 has added a link to his home page and it is fascinating reading. Here is the
direct link to his page:

New test results were posted for #15372. No additional matches.
Today, ancestry's newsletter was about DNA testing for genealogy. This is great
coverage for groups like ours. If you do not receive the newsletter and would like to read
it, here is the link:

A reminder to all who have received their test results - don't forget to upload your
results to
www.ysearch.org. If you have any questions about it or need help let me know,
and I will do it for you. It was interesting to me that I found several matches for my
Dad. Although we are probably related before surnames were in common usage, two of his
matches were from England and one identified the county. So if I ever find my first
ancestor in the US, I will possibly be able to concentrate on a certain area of the UK
rather than looking at all Carters!
